Yasuo vs Yone

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Yasuo is a medium early agency skirmisher who wants to control space using Q and E around minions to pressure Yone.
Deny Yone a calm scaling lane by using your mobility and knockup threat to force trades and prevent his E+Q combo setups.

Trading pattern

Stack Q and dash through minions with E to control space and threaten knockups.
Use W to block Yone's key projectiles but be cautious when W is down as you lose your main defense.
Commit to trades when you have minion mobility and Yone's E is on cooldown or poorly positioned.

Danger windows

When your W is down, you have no reliable way to block Yone's projectiles or mitigate damage; avoid extended trades.
If you lack minion waves, your E mobility is limited, making you vulnerable to Yone's all-in combos.
Respect Yone's E knockup and R displacement as they enable strong all-ins and crowd control.

Early game

Use level 2 power spike with Q plus E mobility to trade aggressively before Yone unlocks his full combo at level 3.
Keep the wave on your side to maintain dash targets for E and avoid being punished by Yone's E snapback.
Respect Yone's early low lane pressure but punish when he mispositions after using E.

Power spikes

Major spikes: Level 2 Q+E for early trades, Level 6 R if knockup is available, and first completed item.
Respect Yone's level 3 unlock of Q-W-E combo with shield and his first back power spike with attack speed.
Yone's R can turn fights instantly; keep track of its cooldown to avoid all-in windows.

Win conditions

Use Q and E to maintain high mobility and control space near minions, denying Yone safe trades and scaling.
Punish Yone when he uses E from a bad position or misses key abilities like Q knockup or R.
Capitalize on your level 2 and 6 spikes to force favorable fights and snowball lane pressure.
